If you have the opportunity to play this game of life you need to appreciate every moment. A lot of people don't appreciate the moment until it's passed.
Recession is when a neighbor loses his job. Depression is when you lose yours.
If you can reach out and touch and love and be with wildlife, you will forever be changed, and you will want to make the world a better place.
There is just one thing I can promise you about the outer-space program — your tax-dollar will go further.
Life is like a game of cards. The hand you are dealt is determinism; the way you play it is free will.
People in the street will either call me 'Prime Minister' or 'Justin'. We'll see how that goes. But when I'm working, when I'm with my staff in public, I'm 'Prime Minister'. I say that if we're drinking beer out of a bottle, and you can see my tattoos, you should be comfortable calling me 'Justin'.
It always surprises me how much my followers appreciate how candid my photos are — they may not have a particularly unique subject, but it's more about the light you shed on the subject than the subject itself.
When you blame others, you give up your power to change.
Better keep yourself clean and bright; you are the window through which you must see the world.

I've never had anyone put on a puppet show to convince me of anything. And I've done a lot of stuff. I don't know that I would put the puppets on when I was pitching a show. This was the head of the studio putting a puppet show on. And I'll tell you, he wasn't bad.
Saliva has antibacterial properties. It also has things called nerve growth factor, skin growth factor, histatins which help with wound closure. So when you see an animal licking a wound or even a mom kissing a child's boo-boo, there's some, there's some good science behind why one might do this.
Being brilliant is no great feat if you respect nothing.
You wind up creating from silence, like painting a picture on a blank canvas that could bring tears to somebody's eyes. As songwriters, our blank canvas is silence.
